Public engagement blog 2010
Welcome to Vitae’s online discussion space on public engagement and its potential impact on you, your research and the public you engage with.
Vitae recognises the importance of the public engagement agenda for researchers and also the commitment of many organisations to raising the profile of the agenda; providing researchers with opportunities to develop their skills and actively participate in public engagement activities.
Vitae have commissioned a number of opinion based articles specifically for this space from a range of perspectives. You are able to make comments on the articles, raise questions and post up any useful or related web links that you want to share with others and of course, post your own article. All are welcome to engage in the discussion. Posting of comments is subject to the standard Terms and Conditions of use for the site.
For more information on public engagement, visit our other public engagement sections written specifically for posgraduate researchers or research staff.
